Marie Claire featured a page of stunning, strappy satin heels — the perfect accessory to complete a hot summer outfit. What fingernails would you create for a client wearing these fabulous shoes?

“I’d create almond-shaped fingernails, like this blue nail I created with Nfu.Oh enamels #94 and #118 with turquoise Swarovski crystal embellishments.”

Catherine Wong, Escalonce, Singapore

“Create long and slender nails — like the stiletto nails that are all the rage in the U.K. — to match these delicate shoes. By adding a little color to the free edge, using the opaque colors from the gem stones range in EZ Flow Nail System’s color collection, it will give your French that fun factor. Use a stripe of sapphire along the smile line, or add some amber swirls over the white edge, as adding small amounts of bright colors will bring sunshine to your tips. But don’t overwork it. Add some sparkle to the nail beds by delving into the Time to Shine collection from EZ Flow, overlaying the different glitters and colors to give your nails depth.”

Sam Biddle, Be Inspired, Dorset, England

“I’d create stiletto nails to match the stiletto shoes. I would create a medium- to long-length nail with a shallow smile line. I’d use the Nfu.Oh New Focus Collection – Gold & Bronze Series with some gold beads and a 3-D rose made from acrylic.”
